I am experiencing a significant delay in Pro Tools 5 between the time I hit Play and the time it actually begins playing audio. My disk cache in Memory Control Panel is 512k.

Check to see if the application memory minimums are set correctly for Pro Tools and/or DAE. Quit Pro Tools, get info on the Pro Tools and/or DAE application icon, go to Memory, highlight the number in the Minimum field, type zero and hit return. Relaunch Pro Tools.
